General Information What is VIU Venice International University (VIU) is something unique in the international academic panorama: a group of Universities from differ - ent countries sharing a common campus on the beautiful island of San Servolo, in the Venice lagoon. All involved in jointly creating mul - tidisciplinary programs that go beyond the traditional divisions in separate disciplines and educational structures (faculties, depart - ments, schools etc.) in order to face the present global challenges: _ sustainable development, to reduce environmental deterioration, avoid the destruction of non- renewable resources and encourage the use of renewable ones; _ climate change, to contrast global warming and avoid the related extreme events that cause serious economic and social damage; _ population ageing, and all the social, economic and health issues that it brings with it; _ urban growth, with the forecast of 75% of world population living in cities by the year 2050; _ global ethics, for greater tolerance in view of the migration flows on the planet; _ the preservation of cultural heritage, which is being subjected to forces that risk damaging it or destroying it forever. Research in these global topics requires a different kind of preparation than in the past. Students at VIU learn to move across cultures and disciplines under the guidance of Professors from all over the world, with a flexible approach, an open mind and creative thinking. The Universities that form VIU range from the Far East (Universities of Tongji and Tsinghua in China, Waseda University in Japan) to the Far West ( Boston College and Duke University in the USA, INRS Québec, Canada) passing through the Mediterranean and Europe ( Tel Aviv University in Israel, the European University at St. Petersburg in Russia, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München in Germany, Université de Lausanne in Switzerland, Università degli Studi di Padova and the Venetian Universities of Ca’ Foscari and Iuav in Italy). The study programs are defined collegially: the Board of Directors, headed by the President, Ambassador Umberto Vattani, sets out the strategic outlines, and the Academic Council, led by the Dean, Professor Agar Brugiavini, articulates and applies them in two yearly terms. The courses are taught in English by Professors from the differ - ent Member Universities. Venice, with its lagoon, its islands and its mainland, is a living labora - tory which is also very fragile, with an extraordinary cultural and envi - 4 ronmental heritage, and the perfect setting for studying the various aspects of the global challenges that the contemporary world forces us to deal with. VIU offers its support for research programs involving the various Universities that form its network, and develops specific programs for advanced training. For example, in a program supported by the Italian Ministry of Environment, approximately ten thousand Chinese officials have received advanced training during the first ten years of the program on topics linked to environmental sustainability, an issue of strategic importance for China and for the entire world community. VIU has always considered art and architecture as vital instruments for both social and economic growth. That is why each year VIU organ - izes exhibitions during the Venice Biennale, and hosts permanent works of art by renowned artists on its Campus. VIU also encourages the application of new information and communication technology to Art and Architecture, making use of the enormous potential pre - sented by the present and the past of Venice: through its Multimedia Laboratory, a collaboration of Duke University and Iuav , VIU provides students from the Humanities with special training in the use of the latest digital visualization tools applied to cultural heritage. Thanks to cooperation agreements with UNESCO and the Council of Europe, VIU participates in programs with these important organizations, in par - ticular regarding the valorisation of Venetian routes in the Mediterranean and in the world. VIU is present in many worldwide University Networks, such as the Global University Summit , the Coimbra Group , the Alexander von Humboldt Association and the Associations of Victorian Studies of Great Britain, North America and Australasia. Three important Italian public institutions are also part of VIU: the Province of Venice, the Ministry of Environment and the National Research Council (CNR). The Italian Ministry for University Education and Scientific and Technological Research formally recognized the Venice International University consortium as an international center of higher education and research by Ministerial Decree on 23 October 1997. 5 School of Humanities and Social Sciences crossing borders educating towards world citizenship Today’s globalized world needs flexible minds, able to move across disciplines, capable of tackling contemporary challenges with innova - tive humanistic approaches; recognizing the importance of environ - mental and economic sustainability and natural and cultural heritage; understanding, communicating and working with people from other cultures. VIU’s School of Humanities and Social Sciences provides a response in this direction, promoting academic cooperation among partner universities from around the world, through academic pro - grams, internships, seminars, workshops and conferences. In particu - lar, the School provides students with an intense educational experi - ence in Venice, in multicultural contexts, where global and compara - tive approaches are privileged, integrating the study of human her - itage, creativity and imagination with the study of social relations and institutions. The School draws from the expertise acquired since 1997, by the VIU Joint multicultural Semester Program, by the first editions of the VIU Globalization Program and by the VIU Research Centers on Environmental Management and Sustainable Development (TEN) and Economic Innovation (TeDIS). Its main activities are: the Globalization Program, Internships, Summer Schools and Intensive Seminars, Public lectures, Co-curricular Activities, Conferences and the Web Community. The Globalization Program is the flagship of the School of Humanities Globalization Program and Social Sciences and brings together talented, motivated students from the 13 member universities in a truly multicultural, international and interdisciplinary environment. Each semester over 100 students participate in the program as part of their degree in their home uni - versity. The interdisciplinary courses are English-taught by professors from the member universities. The program provides a powerful learning experience in which stu - dents develop their capacity for critical thinking and creative problem solving. Students of the Globalization Program are thus more pre - pared for graduate and professional study and for careers in new and emerging fields Students choose from a course offering of 18-20 courses in the following three topic areas: Venice & Italy: courses that showcase Venetian and Italian life, cul - ture, art and history: 1. History of Venice 2. Italian Contemporary History in Films 6 3. Art and Architecture in Renaissance Venice 4. Italian Fashion and Design 5. Italian for Foreigners Cultures Of The World: courses that examine the cultures of the world; courses that make the most of the intercultural classroom: 6. Intercultural Communication 7. Gender Studies 8. Comparing East and West Global Challenges: courses that address current, global issues, prefer - ably from an interdisciplinary perspective: 9. Identity, Heritage and Globalization 10. Globalization, Ethics, Welfare and Human Rights 11. Global Governance for Peace and Security, Cooperation and Development Two specialization tracks are also offered, one in Fall and one in Spring: Economics, Management and Digital Technologies applied to Cultural Heritage (Fall semester) Environmental Management and Sustainable Development (Spring semester) Additional courses, on offer for one semester only are taught by visit - ing professors from member universities. The Globalization Program is a 15-week credit only program. Courses Academics are 40-hours long (except Italian for Foreigners : 56 hours) and recog - nized for credit by member universities. Attendance is compulsory; a mid-term break allows independent travel in Italy and Europe. Courses have 20-25 students to facilitate group work and student pre - sentations. All Member Universities recognize Globalization Program courses for Credit recognition credit. Each University defines the procedures by which courses are approved and how they can be inserted into a student’s degree pro - gram.

Gump COMPOSER, ARTIST, AND PRESIDENT OF GUMP'S, SAN FRANCISCO An Interview Conducted by Suzanne B. Riess in 1987 Copyright @ 1989 by The Regents of the University of California Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West,and the Nation. Oral history is a modern research technique involving an interviewee and an informed interviewer in spontaneous conversation. The taped record is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The resulting manuscript is typed in final form, indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between the University of California and Richard B. Gump dated 7 March 1988. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes. All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley.

FELLOW OF THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF ARCHITECTS AUTHOR OF THE RENAISSANCE UNDER THE VALOIS NEW YORK D. APPLETON AND COMPANY 1896 Copyright, 1896, By D. APPLETON AND COMPANY. INTRODUCTORY. Architecture, like philosophy, dates from the morning of the mind's history. Primitive man found Nature beautiful to look at, wet and uncomfortable to live in; a shelter became the first desideratum; and hence arose " the most useful of the fine arts, and the finest of the useful arts." Its history, however, does not begin until the thought of beauty had insinuated itself into the mind of the builder.

I quickly responded with a request to be considered as an attendee because while I had travelled to the park a couple of times, I had never been in the spring, and I had never been to the northern range. My initial justification for going was to experience, yet again, the beauty and diversity of ecosystems and wildlife unique to YNP. I wish I could truthfully write that I had the foresight to envision what would happen over the next year as a result of this trip, but that isn’t the case. I’m still not exactly sure how the ADP’s seminar evolved into a large JSU group returning in 2019 with the potential for subsequent groups to follow, and I have to fight myself not to overly romanticize my experiences.

Abstract Agnotologies of Modernism examines the productive role of ignorance in the work of several key modernist authors. Borrowing concepts from speculative realist philosophers like Quentin Meillassoux, Graham Harman, and Jane Bennett, as well as such thinkers as Gilles Deleuze, and Jacques Derrida, the dissertation endeavors to read modernism epistemologically, and treats ignorance as an active and creative force that often plays a key structuring role in the imaginative world of the text. Drawing from Bruno Latour’s notion of a “black box,” the study shows how ignorance can be transposed into an ontological entity which can then be attributed positive traits and characteristics.

  • Powers of Divergence Emphasises Its Potential for the Emergence of the New and for the Problematisation of the Limits of Musical Semiotics

    Powers of Divergence Emphasises Its Potential for the Emergence of the New and for the Problematisation of the Limits of Musical Semiotics

    ORPHEUS What does it mean to produce resemblance in the performance of written ORPHEUS music? Starting from how this question is commonly answered by the practice of interpretation in Western notated art music, this book proposes a move beyond commonly accepted codes, conventions, and territories of music performance. Appropriating reflections from post-structural philosophy, visual arts, and semiotics, and crucially based upon an artistic research project with a strong creative and practical component, it proposes a new approach to music performance. This approach is based on divergence, on the difference produced by intensifying Powers of the chasm between the symbolic aspect of music notation and the irreducible materiality of performance. Instead of regarding performance as reiteration, reconstruction, and reproduction of past musical works, Powers of Divergence emphasises its potential for the emergence of the new and for the problematisation of the limits of musical semiotics. Divergence Lucia D’Errico is a musician and artistic researcher. A research fellow at the Orpheus Institute (Ghent, Belgium), she has been part of the research project MusicExperiment21, exploring notions of experimentation in the performance of Western notated art music. An Experimental Approach She holds a PhD from KU Leuven (docARTES programme) and a master’s degree in English literature, and is also active as a guitarist, graphic artist, and video performer. to Music Performance P “‘Woe to those who do not have a problem,’ Gilles Deleuze exhorts his audience owers of Divergence during one of his seminars. And a ‘problem’ in this philosophical sense is not something to dispense with, a difficulty to resolve, an obstacle to eliminate; nor is it something one inherits ready-made.
